Boys Will Be Boys

Postby Peruna2001 » Wed Sep 24, 2008 10:25 am

Jeff Pearlman, a columnist from ESPN, will be at the SMU Barnes & Noble today at 4pm doing a book signing for his new book, Boys Will Be Boys. I just heard an interview on the radio. Sounded pretty interesting.

"He was quoting the Bible, Revelations. 'Behold the pale horse.' The man who 'sat on him was Death... and Hell followed with him.'"

Let me know how it is. I'll probably buy it in the next couple of weeks. I considered going to the book signing, but would have had to leave work really early.

Thad you could get all kinds of padding out of this ScarJo's nuptials, unless that subject is just too depressing. I'd understand, believe me...
